Part of the reason why awe becomes rarer as we age is also a function of our brain - as we age, our brain thinks it has already experienced something, thereby projecting concepts and ideas of that object/ experience without actually requiring us to experience it again. So even on the daily, we need to challenge ourselves to re-see familiar things in a new light, so awe can be accessible anytime and anywhere. Not just limited to "spectacular" experiences.

My experiences on LSD are essentially 6-8 hours of awe. On my first trip I was brought to tears merely from seeing the stars.

The problem then becomes how to manufacture this awe. I’ve noticed this is the task that many people have taken here in the comments. I’ll say that something I’ve found enlightening is to really study how someone decided to live their lives. Go here on YouTube, find a random person, a person completely different from you, and slip into their skin and see what life they live. Reading a biography is another way of doing this. It’s eye-opening—to escape your own sphere, with all your schemas, and to swim into the orbit of another individual, and to see what meaning they take in life.

negative awe is trauma. this means positive awe has the opposite effect. in realising this, i shivered and i felt my schemas change. a new law has been created in my brain. this is awe i think. thanks!

I’ve heard a song, seen a sunset, a picture of a mountain, heard a piece of advice from a friend, given a homeless man 20 dollars, placed a piece of paper in my mouth, played a tune on the piano, given a man a hug, listened to a representation of dementia, sat in my room with my eyes closed. Awestruck. My favorite feeling in the world

I am from South/Latin America. I have lived in two countries in South/Latin America and visited a few. I thought that each country in South/Latin America were very different from each other, but actually we are way more similar than we think, which lead me to think the whole world was more similar than I expected. This year I travelled to Europe, and out of Latin America for the first time in my life. During the 2 weeks I was in europe there was not one day I didn't experience awe. I remember vividly that the architecture was the thing that always snapped me into being alive and realizing I was so far away from home and things were much more different than I expected. I don't know how to put it, but on the day to day life sometimes I get into "automatic mode" and just walk mindlessly to do the task I need to do, but in Paris, for example, it happened multiple times a day when I was mindlessly walking, but then I found streets with a very different architecture and felt the feeling of "wow, I am in Paris and everything is so different". I was awesome having that feeling of being snapped out and feeling very aware of where I was and how different stuff is. I am fluent in Spanish, English and Portuguese, but it made me awe to see so many people speaking languages that I couldn't understand. The strange of the situations I lived, and the language barrier, made me feel so alive and so in the moment because I was not in control and I was lost in an awesome way.

Psychedelics are great, one time I was trippin on too much LSD and I was staring at a fire pit and the fire pit turned into a mini world with little people and buildings, that was 2 years ago and it's such an experience to remember. would love to try out the psilocybin mushrooms next, just don't know where to get them, so hard to come by

I get my weekly dose of awe from a combination of weed and, books, music, certain games, walking through the woods. Every day on the trail is different. I learn something new reading the same Tolkien books over and over, great music traps me in the moment, or brings me back.

What's interesting is I have never been drawn to comfort or normalcy. Idk what it is about me but I need chaos on a regular basis or I start spiraling. When im comfortable I feel bored, I start thinking about how life ends and we will be dead for eternity while only alive for maybe 100 years. Without awe, lifes suffering is for no reason, with awe atleast lifes suffering has a counterbalance

One thing I've noticed that with media being so abundant in content in this vast internet era, some or few people I've met rarely get awe struck by something when its obvious that it is something out of the world or extremely amazing , I wish I can have your answer on this question of why this happens other than the stuff mentioned above.

my life is full of awe moments, i am glad to be alive and living to experience this world, existence is truly a miracle, every thing i can see and every creature i look at is filled with an unimaginable amount of background story and thus there is beauty in everything

I didn't know awe was so rare to come by, I've never done psychedelics, but I've always tried to find something beautiful in reality everyday, and living in a rural area where the skies aren't so obscured by city lights, where flora and fauna has been allowed to grow as it pleases certainly helped me appreciate the vastness and ephemeral beauty of reality.

A couple weeks ago I went to see the sunset in my backyard and noticed the clouds were moving fast, in little chunks and in SEVERAL layers. I started cloud-gazing and seeing angels, demons, mythological creatures... At one point I was so awestruck that I convinced myself I was dead bc such wonderfulness ain't possible in the real world, I had my jaw on the floor the whole time and my eyes were shining with amusement. I also was high on a bit of weed and a microdose of Ayahuasca and a few hours without my bipolar medication. Anyway, it was the most beautiful sunset I've ever seen and I feel like the richest person ever for being blessed enough to see such beauty from my perspective, and I hope many others also saw slightly different sunsets and had slightly different experiences, just as beautiful and memorable. I'll forever remember that sunset, also bc after it I saw the last episode of DW with Jodie and saw david again, so quite an emotional day and emotions=memorability (which is why PTSD is a thing) through the cerebellum which makes the connection between the amygdala and the hypothalamus. The euphoria of contemplating the universe/nature and what it has to offer is nothing short of spiritual. In fact, the universe built itself in a way that makes it possible for it to contemplate itself through us and our minds, and that's the closest thing to real magic there'll ever be.

I actually started writing a short story shortly after my brother died. It was therapy trying to work through all the emotions, but the most powerful one that came out the grief was... awe. I revisit the doc every year on his birthday, because I understand grief and awe a little more every year. I understand him a little more too, as he lives on in the life I still live. This video gave me a little early inspiration, though, and helped me understand the experience a little more.

I've been feeling so much awe in the past month. I've moved to a new country for university and was pretty depressed for the first few weeks but recently, I've been making myself go out more and it's crazy how just looking at a patch of grass in its vibrancy or the sky or the architecture and breathing in deeply has made me experience such awe. It's like wooow I'm alive wowww I'm in a different country. It's pretty cool, and those moments have helped me be more grateful to be alive.
